Wedding at Graceland

I wasn't sure I would lije this movie because I wasn't crazy about Christmas at Graceland. Decided to give it a chance and so glad I did. It is a great movie , I enjoyed it from beginning to the spectacular ending.

Pickler is not great but she doesn't ruin it as much as the parents of the couple did. Basically this is the story of a wedding planning trainwreck, so much so I thought it was intentionally horrible. Instead of bridezilla it was momzillas. And Laurel's dad is just as bad. David Keith didn't have to act. He just had to stand and look miserable and condemning. And don't forget the ridiculous wedding planner. Talk about no clue.

Except for the singing, this movie had none of the fun of the Christmas episode. I was starting to wonder if there would be any performances by the stars and the first came just before the half-way point. I'm not the biggest country fan (or Elvis) but the leads nailed it in the one performance. I wasn't as thrilled with the guest performer later, but I'm sure many will be.

Fortunately the last part of the movie dumped the parody motif and became sweet and sappy like a typical Hallmark rom/com.

I can't personally recommend this movie and probably won't watch it again. The good things weren't enough to balance out the bad.

Rubbish ?

I have seen better acting in my local amateur dramatic group. Kellie Pickle looked much older than Wes Brown, and couldn't believe she is in her mid 30's. The actors playing the parents were so over the top it was embarrassing to watch. Then there was the little girl with the precocious grin. I felt sorry for Wes Brown who must have been well paid to appear in this film.

Hallmark, as someone else said, used to produce such reasonably good movies, but whenever there is a wedding in the movie its clearly an excuse for manic acting by all. Here in the UK, we love a good wedding, but it appears to be on a whole different level in the U.S if these films are anything to go by, and an event to run from in the opposite direction !!!

This was a pretty good movie for a romance. They should have gotten somebody else for the first dance song. Lee Brice butchered it.

The prepaires of a wedding,a maniacal organiser, a couple who works very bad at level of chemistry between them and te parents saving some pieces of story. Good intentions and Graceland. And togh effort of Eric Close to convince public about resoanable purpoises behind story. But his effort seems very far by target.
